Compact wireless biometric monitoring and real time processing system

Abstract

Systems and methodologies that regulate in real time biometric indicia of an ambulatory patient via employing a distributed computing arrangement of modular component(s), which are tailored in part based on requirements of data to be measured and/or administered. Accordingly, the system can be scaled for different biometric requirements (e.g., data bits, operating frequencies and the like). Such an arrangement can regulate drug delivery units and/or acquire biometric data from an ambulatory patient.
